Do you ever feel guilty no matter what you choose?
You’re at work thinking you should be home. You’re home thinking about work. You grow your firm, but somehow the success doesn’t feel the way you expected it would.
Attorney Jennifer Felten knows that feeling well.
When Jennifer first joined Atticus, her law firm was struggling. Years later, she has a team of nearly 30 people and has grown her revenue by more than 500%. But one of the biggest breakthroughs she experienced wasn’t about marketing, hiring, or systems. It was realizing how much guilt was driving the decisions she made every day.
In this conversation, Jennifer and Steve Riley talk about the expectations we put on ourselves, why guilt can quietly limit both your life and your business, and how learning to pause instead of automatically saying “yes” changed the way Jennifer leads her firm.
If you’ve ever ended the day wondering why you still feel behind, even though you’ve accomplished a lot, this episode will probably feel familiar.
